![]() And despite our extreme ideals, we are still ready to support each other because that's what friendship is all about. Now we are over-my-dead-body-ready-to-protect each other just like we used to. We knew something in this song drew us again to each other. But I remember, before we actullay parted ways, we still sang this song not knowing it might be our last duet together.īut after all those years, we were able to work things out. We realized we had different lives and we thought nothing seemed to click between us anymore. We had a fight because of conflicting outlook in life. But of course, like all other friendship stories out there, we argued a lot and argued some more until our communication grew lesser and the distance between us was more than 100 miles. I could say, I was the head, she was the heart. I was the practical side, she was the spiritual side. These and all other depressions, life's pressures, peer and family-related problems and the likes that we shared. Then there we were, stuck together: a person who has lost self-esteem and no-sense of self-worth she (and her family) lost a house, stopped school and lost a sister. In less than a month, at our early age, we've experienced one of life's most painful part -losing a loved one! All I know is that we were all too young to be faced with such tragic event so we had to pull strength from each other. It was during their stay in our house that their elder sister died caused by H-fever or dengue. This was the event in 1991 when the Mount Pinatubo in Central Luzon (Philippines) erupted, thus changed the lives of the people there, and it also changed mine. She's the daughter of my father's cousin (in legal terms: consanguinity on the fourth degree:)īoth our families lived in one shelter when they needed cover from the ash falls of a volcano that erupted. ![]() (Stop there.) I was always misunderstood then I found this person -whom I can be just me when I'm with her. ![]() In high school, I had nothing to be proud of and I was always shying away because I knew back then that I am not one of those normal high school girls. I'd like to reiterate that I am not normally an emotional person, but this is the "softest" spot of my life -those series of tragic events we, me and my cousin, shared together. Ours was a product of some series of painful events. We have different ways of categorizing our best friends, why we chose them and what circumstances that brought us together. These are just a few recollection of the good and bad events that challenged our friendship and our being.) This article is about me and my best friend and this is our song! ![]()

This will dictate starting stats and moves, which can then be enhanced through the purchase of card packs. You’ll also choose their weight class and discipline, like boxer, wrestler, kickboxer, etc. They’re fully customizable as far looks go, and thanks to the character creation tools you can up with some, uh, eclectic looks here. In Ultimate Team you’ll build a roster of 5 created male/female fighters. I’ve generally enjoyed this mode in other EA Sports titles, and while it’s been modified here to bring it in line with a single-competitor sport, it remains the area of the game where I spend most of my time. Ultimate Team is certainly the major addition this year for me. All in all, I’m fairly impressed with the sequel, and if you have any love for UFC, I think you’ll find plenty to enjoy here. There’s very little to fault in the presentation here, outside of the continued issue with sluggish menu navigation. It’s a slick looking combat game that certainly seems to encapsulate the look and feel of real-life UFC events. In conclusion it is undoubtedly a beautiful game to look at but, be prepared for a lot of frustration and many many video scenes to look through.EA’s UFC 2 brings with it a handful of new improvements and modes, including an updated roster, Ultimate Team, and improved animations and visuals.

The video cut scenes are to begin with a good segway of introduction, for main pieces that is but they are used to frequently throughout gameplay i.e. The career mode, although cumbersome but thorough previously (again in the THQ generation), this time takes a lot to get through, very linear with little option to begin and worryingly frustrating and time consuming, not in the good way. It would seem that EA have taken some of the ideas from previous incarnations but have missed out on the vital part, the usability. It feels slow and misses the required fluidity for a game such as this. The control of the characters themselves also feel forced and clunky, what you press does not always concur with the outcome on the screen, the ease of feel from the THQ incarnations is also absent. This incarnation is the opposite, it aims for simplicity but misses the mark, changing the ideas and rules in enough ways to leave you frustrated while playing. Having played the previous 2 incarnations from THQ, they were nothing if not easy to get into, but more difficult to master. Having played the The graphics are very impressive, with great character designs and build for the octagon and in the fighters animations.

EAC has managed to produce an MMA game that is fundamentally solid and sure to serve as a fantastic groundwork for their next entries. Matchmaking is fast, latency is generally great, and a belt system is sure to stoke the competitive flame of warriors across the globe. A career mode tops out exhibition fights to keep loners interested, but the true beauty of the game shines when facing other human competitors, and luckily the online offerings available are robust and executed with a craftsman's attention to detail. You can dash in and out of harm's way as Machida, sway to land counters as Anderson, or break some bones as Nogueira. The sense one gets of total control over the fighters is immensely satisfying and convincing. The The best MMA game to date!

With its limited development time, EA Canada put its emphasis where it matters the most: the gameplay! ![]() ![]() ![]() We have included as many useful loops that we can get from each drum track. The loop packs contain live 4 bar loops in each component stem and a folder of grooves and fills which are 2 bar loops locked to the beat. These can be quickly imported into any DAW to build tracks without a tempo map. The stem packs also include stem and mix loops chopped into the same song parts as the multi-tracks (intro, chorus, bridge, verse, middle 8 and outro). The stems and mix packs contain all the drum parts and percussion as separate stems, come as 24 bit WAVs and also include a tempo map. These loops have been locked to the tempo so you can quickly build tracks rather than using the tempo map. We also include multi-track loop packs separated into intro, chorus, bridge, verse and outdo. ![]() We provide templates for Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, Reason, Reaper, Studio One and Ableton Live and the audio comes as 24 Bit WAVs. The multi-tracks come with a tempo map and OMF file to export into other DAW. Martyn has played for artists such as Martha and Rufus Wainwright, Richard Hawley, Katherine Williams, Lou Reed, Peggy Seeger and he also played drums on Joe Boyd’s ‘Way To Blue’ making him a perfect choice for this album.Īll sixteen tracks can be purchased as multi- tracks (unmixed), stems (mixed) or drum loop packs. He started his career with the band Shriekback and is a busy session drummer recording and touring. Martyn Barker has had a career playing the drums professionally for over 30 years. The snares used were a Ludwig 400 and a 1960s wooden Ludwig Snare. It is almost identical to the Super Classic kit which Ringo Starr once used, except it has two rack toms rather than just the one. The kit we used for this was a beautiful vintage 1966 Ludwig Hollywood Kit. ![]() ![]() Livingston has been used to record a multitude of hit records over the years and is well known for being one of London’s top drum rooms. Although the sound is controlled it has a great ambience around it. The kit was recorded in the drier sounding room at Livingston (we saved the liver room for Volume 2 ). All of the mics were recorded through API mic pre’s and recorded straight to 2” tape on a Studer A80 with a 16 track headblock before being transferred into Pro Tools. He used only five microphones on the kit: one on the kick, the snare, two kit microphones placed around the kit which provide a surprisingly good stereo picture, and a mono overhead. Instead of positioning the microphones close to the kit he wanted to capture a natural drum sound and record the ‘dead’ room. Phill’s idea was to create a 1960s drum sound with a modern twist. There are a few 3/4 options and a couple of tracks were played with brushes and hotrods.įor the sound Phill Brown (John Martyn, Bob Marley, Rolling Stones, Talk Talk, Led Zeppelin) used his years of accumulated knowledge and went back to the time of the 60s when he was based at Olympic Studios. Ranging in tempo from 74 BPM to 162 BPM there is a huge range of tracks and grooves to choose from. The grooves on these tracks take reference from artists such as John Martyn, Traffic, Neil Young, Nick Drake, Fairport Convention and Bob Dylan. The album was recorded at the historic Miloco Livingston Studios in London using a 1966 Vintage Ludwig Hollywood Kit. The drums were played by Folk Rock expert Martyn Barker and recorded by legendary Producer / Engineer Phill Brown. Most of them are based on songs from the 60s and 70s. 1 contains 16 drum tracks taking influence from a range of folk rock tracks. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But let me show you our newest collection. Her eyes flickered a few times, and then she cleared her throat when I raised my eyebrows. "I just want something exceptional but nothing too fancy do you have something like that?" The saleslady strangely stared at me as if I said something wrong. What exactly are you looking for?" she politely asked. Now that I have enough cash and credits to settle down with her, and that we have finally fixed our issues, I know this is the right time. For the past two years, I was able to save money from the tournaments I won, allowances they gave, and part-time jobs I did. My indirect questions were just cover ups to my plans of proposing to her for real. I've asked her a few times to marry me but I know she didn't take it seriously because I always played around. I have no idea how to deal with planning my formal proposal. "I don't actually know how to do this" I shyly admitted as I rub the back of my neck. Besides the fact that they will earn a lot of money from these diamond rings, they're in awe with us men who actually put an effort to marry the woman we love. I guess seeing the customers looking and buying for engagement and wedding rings make their heart flutter. "May, I help you sir?" The sales lady approached me with a smile. Tae kwon is absolutely right, no matter how the world is overturned in different angles I am irrevocably and unconditionally in love with her. Nobody can argue with me that she's almost perfect but still she remains as simple as the girl four years ago the girl who doesn't care about makeup, pretty clothes, weight, gossips and whatnot. With Bok Joo, everything about that woman is exceptional- from her weightlifting skills, love for me and her family, kindness towards everyone, and to beauty that could pass as supermodel. I want something exceptional but still with a hint of simplicity just like Bok Joo. I'm looking for the perfect yet simple ring that would fit her beautiful long fingers. I couldn't believe I'm actually finally doing this. Jung.Īs I scanned the rings dazzling under the glass in this jewelry store, I felt shivers run through my spine. It will surely be a new beginning for the both of us as Mr and Mrs. Moreover, I couldn't wait for the rest of the days, months and years that will follow after this. We have finally reached the peak of our relationship we are getting married. I am just so happy, grateful, overjoyed, contented and all the possible words that could describe what I am feeling right now. Now, I am not in denial that seeing Bok Joo in her wedding gown makes me cry. Jae yi Hyung was right, there's a point in your life that you would shed some manly tears because of happiness. I couldn't help but tear up at the sight of her. The tips of her hair were set out on loose waves just like the way she prefers it, her face was covered only with light make up, and the way she carried herself in her the stunning ivory gown with a genuine smile plastered on her face was more than enough to take my breath away. I saw myself in a white tuxedo and black bow tie standing at the end of the altar while waiting for the most amazing woman walked down the aisle to the tune of beautiful in white. Today, instead of waking up from nightmares like the other days, a beautiful dream ended my sleep. It's the perfect day to execute my plans without her knowing. Could Ishak be next on the list, or is he the man responsible? Tracking down his more ‘unsavoury’ allies, Serena is shocked to encounter a familiar face: that of her grieving ex-partner, former Malaysian ICD officer Megat Jamil (Bront Palarae).I awoke to an empty space beside me but unlike the previous days and weeks, I was relieved to be greeted by Bok Joo's absence. As Serena and Heri work together to catch the killer, their inquiries lead them to industrialist/kingpin Datuk Ishak Hassan (Wan Hanafi Su), whose prominent family and known associates all have some connection to the victims. Seeking answers, Heri finds a way to insert himself into the Malaysian investigation. Meanwhile, in Jakarta, for ICD Lieutenant Heriyanto Salim (Ario Bayu), the case turns personal when his brother is found murdered in similar circumstances. Called in to investigate, Singaporean International Crimes Division (ICD) officer Serena Teo (Rebecca Lim) takes charge of a case across the border where a family has been slaughtered aboard a luxury yacht in Johor. A series of brutal murders, each sharing a signature MO, takes place across Malaysia and Indonesia. ![]() ![]() ![]() When you are busy it is possible to give time to the bigger ones.

However, if the player collects all 50 oysters, they will be revived and it will be possible to date them again, although Millie and Denise cannot be revived at all, as missions cannot be replayed. ![]() If one of the girlfriends is killed, they remain that way for the rest of the game, making it impossible to revive them without restarting. Once he does, he may need to date Denise at least once before leaving the city again in order to maintain his present status with her. For example, as long as Carl stays outside of Los Santos, he has no obligations towards Denise and his status with her will remain static so long as he doesn't reenter the city. However, this does not apply if Carl remains outside the girlfriend's geographic area. In order to maintain and increase the relationship status, Carl must date his girlfriend regularly, otherwise the status will decrease. Gaining a high wanted level will also simply ask the girl to be taken home regardless. ![]() The girlfriend's date can also be ruined by not taking them home after five minutes of a date, even if the date went well. Getting in a vehicle and then driving far away as well as jumping off a high cliff to a body of water (which means Carl will live despite jumping without a parachute) will be considered as abandoning the date and will lessen Carl's progress meter. Hitting, punching, and shooting a girlfriend will be considered abuse, and the girlfriend will walk away and end the date. When driving around, if Carl insists on consistently driving in areas the girlfriend doesn't like or drives at a speed the girl doesn't like to the point that her fun meter hits zero, the girlfriend will just ask to be taken home. When dancing in a nightclub, if Carl does not score a high enough dancing score, the girlfriend will be disappointed. However, if Carl takes the girlfriend to a restaurant they do not like, the girl will show displeasure to Carl, who is gobbling his food. If Carl takes a girlfriend to a restaurant they like, romantic music will play and it will show the two having a good time with each other. There are ways for a date to either turn out right or wrong. Millie and Michelle have unique dating activities the other girls do not have:įor Millie, by simply appearing in a gimp suit (which will be in Carl's wardrobe after their first encounter) to pick her up, regardless of Carl's progress with Millie, she will offer to have sex with him and the progress will increase.įor Michelle, instead of driving her around, she might ask to be the one who will drive, and as long as Carl does not bail out of the car, the date will be successful. A relationship status is maxed out if it reaches 100% where the girlfriend will give Carl a special outfit, and the relationship status will never increase again once it has reached its maximum limit. Successful dates which are finished with a hot coffee increase the status with +10% each. One disastrous date cause it to decrease by -5%. Successful dates increase the relationship status with +5% each. Reaching a 35%-50% relationship status will give Carl an access to the girlfriend's car as the game will mention that the girlfriend has shared her car keys to CJ, and once the relationship status is maxed, Carl will receive a unique outfit from the girlfriend. ![]() After a certain number of successful dates, Carl may be invited back to her place for "coffee" (sex). Each girlfriend has their own different tastes in the three activities, as well as Carl's physical appearance. These include a visit to a restaurant (including fast-food chains, diners, formal restaurants, and bars, alongside the bar in dance clubs), dancing at a dance club, and driving around. Three different activities are available during dates. Michelle is the only girlfriend who is found in an interior. Barbara becomes available once Tierra Robada, Bone County and Las Venturas are unlocked. Michelle, Katie, and Helena become available to date once Flint County, Whetstone and San Fierro are unlocked (although Helena is first encountered in Red County, which is accessible from the start of the game, she does not appear until the second region is unlocked). The other girlfriends, who are encountered during gameplay rather than being attached to missions, are Michelle Cannes, Barbara Schternvart, Helena Wankstein and Katie Zhan. Dating any of the six girlfriends is not required for 100% Completion, with the exception of Millie Perkins (although Millie can be killed during her first date).ĭenise is first encountered during the mission Burning Desire, whilst Millie first appears during Key To Her Heart. ![]() ![]() ![]() Darwin thinks they make him look like he 'went to the bathroom in a space suit.'

![]() ![]() In-game cinematics progress the game's plot. Of course, nothing will go according to plan, and success will often depend on being able to deal with unexpected situations quickly and efficiently. Though Conflict: Desert Storm might seem like a typical action game from screenshots, first and foremost, it's a squad-based game in the mold of Rainbow Six and Rogue Spear, and like in those two games, success in every mission depends on your ability to map out and digest your target area covertly, strategically place your various squad members in key locations, and execute your orders with extreme prejudice. You'll move about an obstacle course, become familiar with a number of weapons, and learn how to issue commands to the rest of your squadmates. Of course, before you do any of that, you'll have to go through three sessions of boot camp. Conflict: Desert Storm is split up into 15 individual missions that involve everything from rescuing POWs to scouring for and destroying Iraqi Scud missiles. The game is currently in development at UK-based SCi and Pivotal Games, and it places you in the shoes of a squad leader for either the Delta Force or the British SAS in Kuwait and Iraq during the Persian Gulf War. You'll have to escort royalty through the war-torn streets of Kuwait City. Though you probably won't see a CNN or History Channel special on these operations, newly formed publisher Gotham Games will soon let you reenact those events in the forthcoming action game Conflict: Desert Storm. According to some news reports, operations undertaken by Marines Force Recon, US Army Rangers and Delta Force, Navy SEALs, and the British SAS played a key role in ensuring victory both before and during the war. One aspect of the war that wasn't televised, however, was the supposed secret operations of the military's special operations teams that paved the way for the US-led invasion in the days and weeks prior to January 16. The war was also the world's most widely televised conflict, as news networks like CNN and the BBC brought home nightly images of the offensive from US airbases in Saudi Arabia, the streets of Kuwait City, and even from downtown Baghdad itself. Launched by the United States and a coalition of international forces on January 16, 1991, the six-week war devastated Iraq and forced their eventual retreat from neighboring Kuwait.
